    Luka will get the press but don't underestimate how important Lively and Gafford are. They are locking up the paint on Ant and making his life hell. Neither of those guys were even on the roster 12 months ago. PJ Washington was also a huge addition this year.

    Being part of that search committee is not enough to fire someone. Do you know what Tellem contributed to that committee? For all we know he said not to hire Weaver and Gores did it anyway. Most things I find online say Tellem runs the business side of things for Gores while consulting on some major basketball decisions.

    Love it was over Gobert. Put your feet at the 3pt line and never step back. All you care about there is not giving up the three. Let him drive all day.

    Luka is kinda good at basketball.

    What did Tellem do to deserve being fired? I consume a lot of pistons into and I don't have a clue what Tellem does. But every fan seems to think he has made a thousand mistakes and should be fired. I would fire their college scouts way before their pro scouts. They haven't really made any free agent moves or big trades to judge their pro scouts. Sounds like Langdon will have full control of the basketball side of things. He will have to evaluate these guys and determine if they stay or not.

    He wanted a break from coaching after Phoenix. He could get it now and walk away with $30 million.

    It's fun to joke about Tellem. But he was the Michael Jordan of agents. It would be hard to hire a former player from Langdon's era that wasn't represented by Tellem at some point.

    Langdon should approach Monty and try to reach a buyout number. Tell him we can frame it as him wanting to be with his family to save face. Then he walks away with $20m-$30m for doing nothing. Fire him if he refuses. Then he should get Kenny Atkinson on a private jet and go to work on him. He did an excellent job with a very young Nets team before they tried the KD/Kyrie/Harden experiment. Tell him to do what he can with the current roster. Over the next 18 months promise to rebuild the roster with players that match his coaching style. Set the goal of making the playoffs in years two (2026). It will cost Gores an ungodly amount of money for the next 5 years. But the team has gone up in value over one and a half billion dollars since he purchased it. He can afford it.

    It really could be something.

    I could see them dumping Weaver. I think he has two years left at $4m per. But I highly doubt they fire Monty unless he is willing to take a buyout.

    I can't find anything saying he does. Could be though.
  16. Deleterious
    Yes. Tellem was his agent when he was a player.

    I think I want to bring KCP home. Good defender. Shoots 40% from three so he is a good catch and shoot guy for Cade. Veteran presence in the locker room.

    He should have been fired just for using Mobley as a back to the basket big.

    It has to be Connelly right? What will really suck is them waiting and then not landing him.
  21. Deleterious
    Still blows me away he went third. His pre-draft resume was better than anyone in the lottery era by miles.
  22. Deleterious
    So with the delay in hiring a new POBO it seems likely Weaver and staff will be running the draft and free agency. New guy will have final say obviously. But the current group will be doing the scouting, breaking down the film, filing all the reports, etc. I imagine the new hire will start replacing/keeping people after the free agent period in July.

    Nothing should be off the table when you lose this many games.
